Here we go!
This year, we plucked up the courage to participate in our first event. By pure chance, one day we discovered South Market , an already well-known event, and we wondered, "Is this the right time to take the plunge?"
We decided to take the risk, despite the new Japan Tour drop, the artists writing to us about the new puzzles in production, the setup to buy, the stickers to print… and LOTS of other stuff!!!
We like to take risks — otherwise we would never have embarked on this (not so) crazy adventure: making everyone fall in love with our super cool puzzles. 💘
Getting people to know us is essential to us, and we knew we'd meet some of the people who already choose us for their carefree evenings.
And now, a few days later, we can say it: it was absolutely worth it.
Here's what happened
We met so many of you, and we were super happy about it.
Organizing everything in just a few days wasn't easy, especially since finding rigid equipment capable of holding our framed puzzles ... is no easy feat at all!
But we didn't stop there:
We've launched a super new product — an absolute preview of the brand new Japanese puzzles from the second Japan Tour collection!
Additionally, we retrieved all our puzzles from storage and carefully selected the ones to take with us.
We have also thought of a nice activity to let you experience the puzzle in a completely different way than in the online world: we have invited each of you to place a few pieces of our beloved best seller “ Paper Dreams ” .
It was a huge success !
Those who already loved puzzles had fun completing it with friends and new acquaintances. Those who had never done a puzzle before had a whole new experience... and the feedback was also overwhelmingly positive!
Sharing with you what creating (and making) puzzles means to us is not easy, but this experience has motivated us even more.
Seeing you unsure about which one to choose, taking photos of you, tagging us on social media… made us understand how important it is to build real contact.
So… little spoiler:
We will participate in another similar event in May .
Who can guess which one? 😋
